THE Ninth Sermon.

IN the worst age of the Church, that the Church may not be swallowed up with fear, in the worst times, God doth prepare promises for his people.

Therefore he addeth Sacraments to Passover, and the New Testament to the Old, and all to confirm faith, knowing that our hearts are very subject to be daunted.
